I get messages from people all over the world. Although I create content that’s predominately relevant in the US only I always appreciate my conversations with my friends across the globe. With that said, within the US we all experience fall differently. Some people have cold fall weather, and others will have hot weather well into November. So, for my friends who live in hot areas, these dresses may be a great option for you. If you’re looking for long sleeve options that pair well with boots, stay tuned for a future post.

Petite-Friendly Fall Dresses
My Sizing: I’m 4’10”, and my bust, waist, and hip measurements are 32″, 24″, and 36″. My inseam is 25″ (the measurement from the inside of my leg to my ankle bone). The clothes shown are unaltered and show how they fit me right from the store. I list my sizing beside each item to help you compare when shopping online. When referencing my true size, that is often the smallest option available at a brand or petite xxs/00/24. I wear a size 5 shoe.
Mockneck Dress
I bought this dress from Anthropologie last year in hot pink and loved it! This rust version is so pretty for fall. The dress comes in petite but I find it to be rather short in petite so I opted for regular sizing instead. I’m wearing it here in XXS for reference. The skirt is unlined and thin so I wear this dress with a slip.

Corduroy Dress
This dress is an ultra mini length in petite with an all over voluminous fit. I love it, but I do find myself wanting to wear shorts under it. I didn’t try it, but the regular length may still be a petite-friendly option. This one would also be cute with knee high boots.

Midi Dress
This midi dress is one of my favorite tried and true styles from J.Crew Factory. The fall print makes it perfect for the season but you’ll still stay cool since its sleeveless. This dress would also look cute with a cardigan or denim jacket if you need an extra layer.

Floral Dress
This floral dress is an under $50 option from Kohls. It’s long sleeve, but still lightweight if you live an area with hot weather. I paired it with boots as an example but I also think it would be cute with heels and flats! My boots are from last season. They’re a great height but a slouch style with a little bit of room through the shaft.
